Good, but unspectacular!
No, it doesn't smell bad.
It smells like a caramelized apple with a slightly peppery note. Quite sweet and a bit synthetic, but still not too heavy, as the sage and benzoin refresh the fragrance. Additionally, it definitely has a hint of an oriental touch.
In another review, someone mentioned that Diesel has a typical shisha lounge aroma. They are somewhat right, but it shouldn't be taken negatively - on the contrary, it gives the fragrance a youthful sweet-fresh character.
However, the scent is nothing spectacular; this applies to most Diesel fragrances. While it is not expensive, it is also not a cheapie. This raises the question of whether the €40 for 75ml or €50 for 125ml is worth it. Definitely not. It’s better to get a similarly scented cheapie, of which there are now plenty, or spend a bit more and get a Spicebomb or Ultra Male.
Well then, the fragrance is still good. I don't understand the hate; yes, it’s not worth it, but it smells nice.
Definitely a fall/winter scent for going out in the evenings. Absolutely do not wear it in spring or summer. Longevity and sillage are okay.
Conclusion: You will definitely smell good with this fragrance and please others or at least not offend them. I would still opt for either cheaper or more reputable alternatives unless you have fallen in love with the scent.

Anyone looking for an affordable, fresh all-rounder for men will find it here
The Missoni is not a BdC clone - even if some claim otherwise. However, once you try it, you understand why it is compared to Chanel.
It is rather a somewhat cliché Fougere version of BdC, but that should not diminish the Missoni - on the contrary, it gives it a more masculine character, which can be found, for example, in Platinum Egoiste. It is not the notes themselves that resemble BdC, but rather the feeling that the Missoni conveys.
While the quality is nowhere near that of the two Chanels, it still speaks for itself; especially when you consider that you pay under 30 euros for 100ml.
The Missoni is sporty and fresh but still clean and elegant. Barbershop vibes are definitely recognizable, but they are not really old school. I think Missoni reinterprets the barbershop scent and translates it into a modern "blue" fragrance.
At first, the scent is fresh and somewhat citrusy, but over time it transforms into a woody lavender scent. Additionally, at some point, a ginger note appears, which some may find annoying.
The fragrance could have been a bit rounder and smoother, but that should not be seen as a criticism, as the quality for the price is more than top-notch.
You can wear the Missoni almost anytime, regardless of the season. It belongs to those fresh scents that can also be worn on cold winter days, as it is woody and spicy enough. I would only not recommend it in very high temperatures, as the woody and ginger note at the end of the fragrance development can make it feel stuffy.
Sillage is decent and longevity is above average, especially on clothing.
To anyone who wants to smell clean, masculine, and sporty but spend very little, I can only recommend the Missoni.
